Can you drop him so I can pick him up then? I suppose he's technically supposed to take a roster spot for me since he got called up for the last 10 games of last year.

Done.

When do we declare our keepers? Or did we do it and I forgot?

No djp, keep him on your minor league roster.

The rule was (which I did say at the time), that any post-September callups would remain minor-league eligible.

Keepers are declared by Sunday, 10pm ET.

Ah, I was wondering about that. Because I was gonna feel bad if I just forgot to call him up for those games and lost his rights due to that. Cool, so I get to keep Arietta after all.

marshallb · 02-26-2011, 01:33 PM

So, when are we gonna start this draft? as soon as the keepers lock on Sunday night?

bearsfan_51 · 02-26-2011, 02:11 PM

We can start as soon as the keepers are set, but I won't start the clock until 1pm ET the next day.

On that note, if you haven't declared your keepers (both major and minor) you have until tomorrow evening.

yo123 · 02-26-2011, 02:22 PM

Minor league keepers-

SP Kyle Gibson, Twins
SP Zach Britton, Orioles
SS Grant Green, A's

I don't want to be difficult, but I am gonna be out of town from March 4-9. Won't really have time to keep up with things at all I expect.

bearsfan_51 · 02-26-2011, 02:26 PM

I thought you said you weren't going to be out of town until the 10th?

Giantsfan1080 · 02-26-2011, 03:45 PM

That was me who will be gone from the 11th to the 15th. Do we declare our keepers on the ESPN page?

bearsfan_51 · 02-26-2011, 03:47 PM

Yes. On your team page.

We'll just have to work around everyone's schedules, but it would be best if we get as much done as we can.

Would anyone object to pushing the keepers time up to noon tomorrow so that we can start the draft then?

Giantsfan1080 · 02-26-2011, 03:48 PM

I'm fine with it. I'm going now to declare my keepers.

marshallb · 02-26-2011, 04:14 PM

I'm fine with it. I finalized my keepers the other day. I was down to deciding on 4 guys for 2 spots and I locked the final two spots in the other day.

Xiomera · 02-26-2011, 04:20 PM

Start the draft tomorrow.

Was a draft order posted?

marshallb · 02-26-2011, 04:21 PM

That's the draft order, it was posted a couple pages back.

1) djp
2) marshallb
3) giantsfan
4) yo123
5) charm
6) bearsfan
7) d-unit
8) xio

bearsfan_51 · 02-26-2011, 04:27 PM

The first pick is really just a question of who djp wants between Gonzalez and Cano. The second pick will be whomever djp doesn't pick.

Haha. Yea, that's what it is. I PMed djp about that as I was deciding on my final keeper spot, so I think I have an idea as to which one I'll end up with, not that it matters much.

Giantsfan1080 · 02-26-2011, 04:41 PM

We'll be able to see the available players once the draft starts? How is Cano available?

Cano was on one of the teams that were dropped from the league. Really the only way to see who is available is by going to the free agents and there will be a filter that is non-keepers, so it will show everyone who hasn't been kept.

marshallb · 02-26-2011, 04:54 PM

I've also made an excel spreadsheet of ESPN's rankings of the top 400 players and their projected stats for them, and then I will go ahead and mark off the players who have been kept once the keepers lock, and as soon as I'm done if anyone wants it I will email it to them and I can update it and send an update out after every round or two.

bearsfan_51 · 02-26-2011, 05:17 PM

I still need minor-league keepers from djp and major-league keepers from yo and charm.

yo123 · 02-26-2011, 05:18 PM

I'll do my major league **** tomorrow.

bearsfan_51 · 02-26-2011, 05:19 PM

Ok. I've set the deadline for 1pm ET.

yo123 · 02-26-2011, 05:24 PM

Damnit I guess i'll do it now then I on't be awake by then.

bearsfan_51 · 02-26-2011, 05:29 PM

Sorry. I'd like to start tomorrow so that we can make headway before xio leaves.
